    Hi All,

    For about 11 years now I’ve been caregiving my 100 year old mother at home with the loving support of 5 caregivers, and over that time I’ve learned alot about how to do it. She’s got Altzheimers, is now blind and incontinent. I’m offering a workshop for caregivers in Newton MA. If you’re around May 12, 2012 9-noon please join me for some in person support, laughter and yoga and printed templates and resources to use if you think you might be doing this in the future.
